AN AIR OF UNCERTAINTY.

After all, Miss Wolfe's will was far from
being a prosac or matter of fact affair.
That mysterious sealed letter throws an
air Of romance and uncertainty over it all.
No living person knows what it contains.
The dead Woman's lawyer, counsellor, adj
wiser and friend has never read it or been
told its contents. Miss Wolfe wrote ii her
self, from no ones dictation, and had the
lawyer put u clause in the viii covering it.
1t may iuvoly eFa.vast sum of money and
it may be trifling affair.
Other people have left similar sealed let
tiers that contained matters Of great moment.

The story runs that Kaiser William,
while he was still crown prince and q
dashing young officer, entered the Cursaal
ut Ems, wearing an overcoat which con
cealed his brilliant uniform, and, ap-
preaching the crowded table, placed there
on a coin Of small value, about 81. With
n contemptuous gesture the banker
tossed he coin upon the floor, with the
remark, For the croupier." Again the
unknown gentleman threw down a coin
and lost, the banker repeating his action
and words, to the amusement of the other
players. 1t was then, rs now, the custom
of the banks to set aside q certain sun
each day, and put up a notice Of the
amount, beyond which they could not
play. If their losses amounted to this
sum, the bank must close.
William glanced at this notice-200, 00C
fraucs-quietly remarking thai he would
play for the whole bank. ''Who are
you;' exclaimed the dealer with sudden
respect. For reply tho future emperor of
Germany then opened his coat, displaying
the imperial star upon his breast. The
cards were dealt, the prince won, and the
bank was broken. Taking up the enorm-
sun, he deliberately dashed it on the
floor, exclaiming, For the croupier!n
Then turning on his heel, left the apart

While standing on Penn avenue tho
other day, a well known dog fancier re-
lates, his attention was attracted to n
noble st. Bernard dog t%rotting ~leisurely
along the avenue evidently with some OBJ
jectiye point in view. He continued his
journey until he reached the car standing
at the termination near Sixth street, and
then he stopped close beside the convey
ance. When the car started on its out
ward journey the dog carelessly boarded
the rear platform and comfortably set
tied down on his launches in evident CON
temptation of u free ride. His repose,
however, was soon disturbed by the mp
p%earance of the conductor from within,
md his dogship alighted in more of a
hurry than he got on. Philosopher like,
he made no disturbance, but waited pa
tiently for the next car, which he boarded,
with the result of n similar election. 1t
was evident that his dogship had much Of
Jobs chief Characteristic, for that same
dog got on six different cars, from each of
which he was unceremoniously "bounced, -
and when lust the fancier saw him he was
waiting serenely fot the opportunity to
make another attempt. -Pittsburg Ga

When Magician Hermann walked out
on his little platform at the Grand Opera
house the other night he held in his hand
the large sheet of blue surah silk which he
wraps around his pretty wife when he
performs the vanishing LADY, trick. He
tossed it to a man in the parquette and
asked him to examine it. Then he walked
back upon the stage and fixed II paper I'M
der the mechanical chair in which madam
sits until the seat falls down. Having
got everything in readiness, the Magician
tripped down his platform and asked the
man to whom he had tossed the silken
sheet to return it as speedily as possible.
The fellow rolled the wrap into a small
ball and made a feint to toss it into Her
mann's outstretched hands. To the great
surprise of the performer the rag disap-
peared in midair. He had given the robe
to a man who wa as def at the tricks of
the black art as himself. The spectators
laughed at Hermann, but the Mephistoph-
clean looking wizard showed no signs of

Drs. Guttman and Merke, of the city
hospital Moabit, in Berlin, nave made an
investigation as to the rcktive value of
various methods of di5infecting inhabited
rooms. The main points kept in view in
the inquiry were that a satisfactory
method should destroy the vitality Of
bacteria, should not injure the house or
furniture, should not be dangerous to the
health of the person in the house or of the
person applying 1t, should involve the
least possible labor in its use and be as
cheap rs possible. The bacillus autrax
was taken as the test organism II was
dried in silk fibres and scattered through
the room, on the rugs, etc. Distinction
was attempted by rubbing the floors,
ceilings n walls with disinfectant fluids
and by spraying the same on the rugs, etc.
The solutions experimental with were n
8 per cen solution of carbolic acid, and
solutions OF bichloride of mercury of
various strengths. Their conclusion is
that a solution of bichloride of mercury,
! to 1000, used as a wash and a spray, is
the most certain, the cheapest and in all
respects the best for disinfecting inhabited
rooms.

What a truly beautiful world we live I'M
Nature gives US grandeur OF mountains,
glens and oceans, and thousands of means
OF enjoyment. We can desire no better
when in perfect health; but how often do
the majority of people feel like giving it
up disheartened, discouraged and worn
out with disease, when there is no occa
sion for this feeling, as every sufferer can
easily obtain satisfactory proof, that
Green's August F2otcer will make them
free from disease as when born. Dyspep-
STA and Liver Complaint are the direct
causes OF IS per cent of such maladies as
Biliousness. Indigestion, Sick Headache.
Costiveness, Nervous Prostitution. Dizzi

Three doses OF August F7oper will prove
its wonderful effect. Sample bottles, ten

~Tennyson's home in the Isle of Wight is
a modest one; he has only one man ser
want in the house, but it is as comfortable
and pleasant as most households of the
same class. 1t is the poets manners and
customs which give it its individuality.
1t is understood that visitors do not dis
urb the great mans ways and that he
behaves in precisely the same manner
when he has company as when he has not.
Every morning. in hail, rain or snow,
the poet dons his frowsy cap or his frow-
sier SLOUGH hat and promenades for an
hour or so, zone daring to disturb him.
Every day Mt Dime a bottle of port is
placed before the host, and Tennyson re-
tires with 1t generally when dessert comes
ON and leaves his guests at the table. The
poet is to be found in his study with his

holding a pint. This is filed half with
port and half with water, and the bard
solemnly fills and refills till bottle and
glass are empty.-London Times.

Later in the day when l ran upon an
old acquaintance turning away from O.
bulletin board on Washington street with
a face SO white and drawn that / inquired,
with an interest quite apart from the con-
ventional insignincance of the question,
concerning his health. He was not Ill, he
assured me. 1t was his same horrible
story of men and women and boys and
girls crushed to death out ut Forest Hills.
Yet this man, who blanched Inc trembled
almost to fainting at a story of suffering,
had inspired his regiment with his own
courage under the murderous fire that
swept Cemetery Ridge at Gettysburg, had
borne painful wounds with a gayety that
cheered the whole hospital and has car
ried the reputation of a man Of iron nerve.
1t is not, in my opinion, n question Of
nerves, nor yet of self control, but of that
deeper and less readily classified sentiment
Of sympathetic humanity, which makes
the bravest seem weak when in the pres
ence OF pain and helpless either to relieve
1t or to combat its cause.-Boston Post.
